The dosage of vitamin K was probably much too low. In Japan K2 is dosed at 45mg (not mcg) per day, which was found to be the minimum effective dose for osteoporosis. A reasonable dose for coronary calcium is probably at least 5mg or more, a

To go even further, all the app devs should get together and create a new platform or pick one Reddit alternative and point all their apps at it. That way it would be even more likely to get critical mass quickly. 3 weeks should be enough t

How are you planning to prevent it from sharing false, hallucinated information? I find that it does that a lot. Try asking ChatGPT about someone you know something about and see how much stuff it makes up. In cases I've checked, it ma

Which is the same as the paid ChatGPT plan when using GPT-4: 25 turns every 3 hours. Bing's free one is better in that sense in that you can use all 200 over a shorter timespan.
